Re: [Evolution] Lost contact wih my Contacts in Evolution 2.0.4 ;-)



.evolution/addressbook directory contains db files for contacts.
.evolution/addressbook/local/ folder will contain directories
corresponding to local contacts folders.
.evolution/addressbook/local/system folder contains db file for
your local Personal folder.
.evolution/cache/addressbook directory will contain offline cache files.
(Evo 2.2 +)

To analyze your problem, can you start evolution-data-server and
evolution in different consoles and see if there are any warning/error
log messages are printed on the console?

-Sushma.

Well, actually I used to be on Debian Sarge (stable) where everything

problems.

With what you wrote Peter, I did a little test. I created a new user,
logged in with this user and started Evolution.  The contacts for this
new users were ok.  So I guess it might be related to some kind of
corruption in a db or some files in the structure of the files in the
evolution directory.

Does someone can point me to a documentation about the structure of the
files in the .evolution directory and the structure of those files as
well?

Thanks,
Bernard

There are a few of us who have experienced that problem, Bernard, but so
far nobody has found the cause (which is not consistent - it works fine
for some people) or a cure.

I was fine with Evolution 2.0.x and 2.4.0, but my contacts disappeared
when I moved to the newest Gnome and Evolution 2.4.1.  So I had to
revert back to the previous Gnome and Evolution 2.4.0.
